@Mauritio Have you actually gotten all of that to dissolve? I think I would need to prepare two separate solutions in order to get all of those ingredients to dissolve.

NMN is sill pretty expensive if you're buying stuff that's verifiably real.

The dextrose I sometimes spray onto my scalp an hour prior to showering, but I can't handle having it in my hair all day long.

But yeah, I hope you try it out.

Blocked. Easy.

@Mauritio I've been applying bromocriptine to my scalp on an irregular basis for quite awhile and I can't say that it's produced any miracles.

@Mauritio That's an unfortunate conclusion. NMN is quite expensive.

@Mauritio

I've been applying the apple skin powder for almost 5 months. I am continuing to see some temple regrowth, but not enough regrowth around the entirety of the scalp for me to proclaim any miracles as of yet. I will continue with the application until I reach 12 months. This has been the forumula over the past couple months:

15ml vodka
1/16 tsp apple skin powder
1/32 tsp niacinamide

Used over the span of a day or two. I could probably mix into a larger bottle--I would think that the vodka would keep the solution safe fresh for at least a few days. I may add some glucose to it and see how much of it will dissolve. I apply glucose to my scalp on an irregular basis; the problem with it is that it leaves my hair in an unpleasant condition that is stiff and sticky. The problem with applying the apple skin powder is that it discolors the scalp purple and red and also temporarily darkens the hair. I am able to put up with this issue because I live a semi-hermetic lifestyle, but most people will not be able to deal with the discoloration.

Any practical experiments we can run on this subject?

@smelllikacowshit Yeah beat loved nitric oxide and juicy pumps.

I have applied Diclofenac topically to the scalp, but the gel was too messy for me to continue the habit for a meaningful length of time. I recall using it for PGD2 inhibition.

@Mauritio

15ml glass dropper bottle

1/32 tsp of powder = 135mg
~15ml distilled water (fully dissolved)
= 20mg PB2 = 0.13% solution

/

1/16 tsp of powder = 270mg
~15ml distilled water (not fully dissolved)
~15ml vodka (fully dissolved)
40mg PB2 = 0.26%

The study I saw on procyanidin B2 for hair used a 1% strength procyanidin B2 solution. But this apple skin powder has additional polyphenols and procyanidins in it other than just B2, so it might be comparably "strong."

@Mauritio I've been applying this product to my scalp for almost 2 months and it seems to be having a positive effect on hair growth, at least in the temple area.
